TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - One candidate's claim of lost paperwork is among eight objections to the upcoming elections the State Objections Board will hear next week.

A petition was filed Thursday against Secretary of State Kris Kobach's office for reportedly losing the paperwork for a candidate wishing to run for the Kansas House of Representatives.

Democrats claim the office lost paperwork for former Lake Quivira Mayor Larry Meeker and they won't admit to the mistake.

The petition and seven others will be considered during the State Objections Board meeting Tuesday. Two of the others involve Topeka House district races.

William Scott Hesse questions the eligibility of Dr. Shanti Gandhi in the 52nd district, while current City Councilman John Alcala questions his opponent Aimee Rosenow's eligibility in their 57th district race.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
